Well, I gave Opera a good hard test drive and now have absolutely no reason left to continue using Seamonkey.
Opera does everything better than Seamonkey with one single exception... the is no way to sign out of a web site after HTTP authentication is used.
Does anyone have any reason to stay with a Gecko based browser?

I use Opera and Firefox. I like them both. I only use Internet Explorer for the odd chatroom that doesn't work.

There is a Firefox plugin that will let you just click an icon that will switch the current page to be rendered by IE. This way ya never need to actually play with the evil.

The name is IE Tab, and it has many options, you can set sites in it to use IE automatically. So maybe that will fix the chatroom issue the other perso was having. Not sure tho, but as mentioned, it IS IE, with all its vulnarabilities. It allows ya to just hafta deal with one browser tho.

Opera at the time I used it required you to pay for it.... (Granted, you cou
use it for free, but they provided some kind of benifiets of "Registering it", and accepted payment fora license to use it... Likewise, there was som aniversy period or something when I got a free license to use it at a time.... Was supposed to be a limited time that they gave out free keys....Though to be honest, the days of "Paying" for a Web Browser are Over.... Ever since IE shipped free with Windows'95 and Netscape went free, there's been no real point in charging... Especially considering the heart o all web browsers out there tend to be based upon either one of the two free web browsers that started it all (IE and Netscape).

Actually you're wrong there John. Mozilla was the first browser then IE was copied from it.

Of course, Mosaic itself was a relative latecomer... the first web browser w WorldWideWeb released in August 1991.

I agree with you 100% there Ralph. There are a couple plugins for Firefox th I refuse to do without:
1. Web Developer (Wonderful for picking apart webpages)
2. "Down Them All"
However, I also like the FireFTP plugin as well.

My favorite skin is the Noia 2.0 Extreme. That one is awesome.

I have been a huge opera supporter for years, even registered it for different platforms over the years. Currently using Firefox for one
stupid reason, and that's the Foxmarks plugin.
Opera's stated bookmark syncing in the next version, so i'll be able
to go back soon!
Actually you're wrong there John. Mozilla was the first browser then IE
was copied from it.
Well, I use Firefox for most of my browsing (the plugins man, the plugins.)
I use Thunderbird + Lightning for email/calendar stuff... I haven't used Opera's email client for a long time, but imho Thunderbird handles multiple accounts better than any other email client... if you only have one email address to use a client for, pretty much anything works.. but with seven ema accounts (6 imap, 1 pop3), and 4 nntp accounts, it's the best...
Though tbird isn't a browser, it's a gecko product that works nicely. Also, didn't think you would use anything that was free(beer) and closed-source?
